PHP newbie - include question

[Dant27]

Hi everyone,I`m a PHP n00b I have got a basic re-direct code below:

<?php $URL="http://elpasso.burnthefat.hop.clickbank.net";header ("Location: $URL");exit();?>

What I am looking to do is replace the "elpasso" part of the code with some text from a text file. Lets call it "example.txt"So I am guessing that I would use the include function but I have been struggling with the correct syntax. Would someone be able to post an example of the above link using the include function and the correct syntax?Thanks in advance!

The include function is used to include other php pages form the same server.use str_replace to parse the $URL and replace what you need.

you could do this:$URL = "http://" + file_get_contents('subdomain') + "burnthefat.hop.clickbank.net";couldn't you?

You could, if you have a file called "subdomain" that contains the text itself (plus the period, unless you include the period in the rest of the URL).
